I wish I didn't feel this way...

You know why women do this? Because we have them up against a rock and a hard place. We tell them masturbation is unlady like, we turned it into a taboo, we turned a lot of other avenues like cursing swearing etc into unlady like things but all of them release endrophins and help us deal not just with physical but emotional pain as well.

People cut because the distraction of physical pain helps them cope with the emotional side of things from what I gather but there are other distractions the problem is you have to just say FUCK THE TABOO and do them anyways.
